Vanity Url and Navigation Component

Hello AEM gurus

I am getting a strange issue in AEM 6.5 when I add VanityUrl to page and looks like the Navigation component is not liking the VanityUrl and is not rendering with Anchor tag.

For example

a) the below is the from we.retail sample site  where Highlighted in Yellow is he Navigation Component (out of box)

b) Highlighted in red is the page without having VanityUrl property added to the page and it has the hyperlink all is well

 

Now lets add the vanity Url the page highlighted in the above screen

a) the Page anchor tag is not rendered

 

Note: This is happening in my project as well

When I tried browsing AEM forums, I found this.  Did any one face the same issue and what is the workaround for it.

Regards

Dilip

Hi

I think because of link checker vanity url is not forming correctly. Can you try disabling it and see the vanity url link is forming correctly ?

I agree with @ravi_pampana,

@dilips52296497 your problem definitely looks like a link checker problem. If you have some time, please spend a couple of minutes reviewing this Guide: AEM Link Checker Comprehensive Guide - https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/aem-link-checker-comprehensive-guide/td-p/290779
